I feel like that was the ultimate troll from Grigson haha. What's that Colts fans? Protect 12? Well how about ONLY linemen

 

I think it's more like Irsay made it clear that they need to upgrade the offensive line during their end of season meetings.

Iowa fan here. If we hadn't already drafted Kelly, I'd say Blythe would be a good candidate to start for us at C. With Kelly though, I think he'll be our backup C. Holmes and Harrison better be worried, because with this pick I don't more than one of  them makes the final 53.

Didn't we already have the short armed Center ...this sounds like AQ Shipley part 2 ... I think Shipley actually had better pro day stats

 

He's basically Shipley. But believe it or no, Shipley is 30 years old and has no room to improve.

True .. but this guy could be even worse ... end of the 7th so not that big of deal ... just an observation we seemed to never really want Shipley than go draft his clone.

I agree with all of that. Just saying, maybe they wouldn't have been so noncommittal on Shipley if he wasn't topped out and almost 30 years old. Getting a younger version of him with some upside makes sense. And like you said, end of the day, it's a late 7th rounder. If he's a PS guy at best, oh well.

      Id like to see more QB designed runs and stuff with options to run or pass. However I don't half way blame them for pressing pocket passing either bc at some point you know JT is going to get hurt. Might as well let AR get his feel for the pocket early in the season. Say what you want but plenty of guys are open. He's just got to place and complete the pass properly. So far hasn't been happening but we will keep trying until things improve I guess

      But I think Adebaware is a better 3T than him. He's getting better and better.

      Do you see any progress with Richardson?

      By cbear · Posted

      Do people really think his progression should be a graph line going steadily upward? Really? Seven games. It's going to be up and down. Two steps forward, one step back. Sometines, one step forward, three steps back. Especially for a guy who is about as raw as they come. Fans better expect it.

      I’m glad our team didn’t have the bears body language. At least they were encouraging AR on his mistakes. Williams on the other seemed like he is already on the hot seat and teammates are getting tired of it.

      I will say this. AR imo threw the ball much MUCH better in his 4 games last year compared to his first 3 this year.  Not even close.   I have to believe a lot of that is due to him being unable to practice much on his mechanics until August or so.  Remember even during spring practice he was complaining of a sore shoulder and had to take some time off.   I fully believe that once he is totally over his injury that he will be able to take the extra reps needed to get back into a way of throwing without having to think so much.   I play a sport at a highly competitive level, won't say which one, but I broke my thumb this spring and I just now am start to get back into the swing of things.  But I am not even close to where I was before I broke it.
